UK Official Tattoo Academy Reviews 

Amazing tattoo academy! The training was professional, informative and hands-on, Jami was so helpful and supportive. I’ve gained so much confidence and knowledge and would definitely recommend them! ❤️

Loved this body piercing course! I done this in Dublin recently. The class size was perfect. Sandra was absolutely brilliant. She was really thorough in explaining everything. A fountain of knowledge in piercing and tattooing. Very down to earth and happy to answer any questions so I learned a lot in a very comfortable environment. Love how we also got proper hands on experience with models. The two days flew by. I would 100% recommend the Tattoo Academy to anyone interested. I'd go back and do it again 😊

I had a great experience on this course. The support was amazing and I learned many things needed to develop my tattooing skills.

The teacher I had (Jamie) was amazing she supported me throughout and answered every question I asked. Great teaching and vibe overall.

She helped everyone with different things we wanted and needed to improve. So I recommend to anyone who wants to learn to tattoo or develop their knowledge thurther. It’s a great experience would do again

I have just finished my two week course, and I have never felt more comfortable in a learning space. Jami is such a nice teacher, and i feel as though I have learned so much from her. She took her time explaining everything and always encouraged me when I didn’t feel confident. I can 100% say that I would recommend this course for anybody interested in tattooing!

I’ve had an amazing two week tattoo course, Jami has been great an informative teacher, friendly and is always there to help. If you want to start at tattooing I would highly recommend these courses and if you don’t, I would highly recommend as an experience.

I did the tattoo course in Romford and I absolutely loved it! Jami is such a kind women and an amazing teacher she made sure to cover everything we needed to know, in the first week we covered all the health and saftey as well as practising on fake skin she made sure to teach us all the proper techniques. In the second week we had an option to tattoo ourself or another person in the group, overall it was such a lovley experience and im going to miss it

A lovely tattoo course
I thoroughly enjoyed the course and had jami and jamie as my tutors. I really enjoyed how they helped me with my needle hang and experience in their way of working with coverups. I excelled my skills here entirely!

I just finished the tattoo academy course with Jami in Romford and it couldn't have gone better. We learnt so much and got so much more experience than we expected to. Jami was an amazing teacher she was so encouraging and knowledgeable and really wanted the best for us! She even let us tattoo her which we were so grateful for. I would recommend the experience to anyone looking to gain confidence and information!

Recently completed 2 week course at Romford under Jami shes so lovely and knowledgable. Really really enjoyed it and feeling confident to start my new venture. Would deffo recommend as a start point in a profesional environment to get the understanding of the tattoo world

I recently completed the tattooing course with Leah, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better teacher. Leah is incredibly talented, knowledgeable, and passionate about tattooing, and that really shows in the way she teaches.

She explained everything clearly, from hygiene and station setup to technique, line work, shading, and client care. What I appreciated most was how patient and supportive she was throughout the course. She made sure I felt confident at every step and was always happy to answer questions and give helpful feedback.

Leah creates a comfortable and professional learning environment, which made the whole experience enjoyable as well as educational. I’ve come away from the course feeling much more confident in my skills and excited to continue growing as a tattoo artist.

I would highly recommend this course to anyone wanting to learn tattooing, whether you’re a complete beginner or looking to improve your technique. Thank you, Leah, for such an amazing experience!

**Beware** held on to my money, made aggressive calls to me and instructed me to remove my reviews online!

If I could give 0 stars I would as it would still be more than this company deserves. I booked to go on one of their tattoo courses, I had to cancel (within my 14 day statutory cooling off period). They did not process my refund as required, they held my money and I was forced to reclaim via my Credit Card provider.

The initial timely correspondence at the point of booking was non existent when I asked to cancel. They tried to tell me I had no right to a refund despite their own terms and conditions stating otherwise. They care not a jot for statutory or legal obligations.

I got a call from someone claiming to be from accounts (their number links to the Tattoo Piercing Academy) instructing me to remove my reviews from trustpilot and Google. They were rude, aggressive and incredibly argumentative.

I have sent over 20 emails to try get my money back through my legal rights. They have ignored them all. I finally got my money via a chargeback claim.

Completed the 2 week intensive tattoo course.
Had such a great time, learned a lot from Leah. Highly recommend

I had an amazing experience ! Jamie is a fantastic tutor – super knowledgeable, patient, and really helped me build my confidence. and I'm so glad I chose it. Thank you for everything!

TATTOO COURSE - AVOID - ABSOLUTE CON!
We paid £1,600 for what was advertised as an “Intensive 10-Day Tattoo Course.” This Unfortunately was not what was claimed!
– Website claims 30 years’ experience, but Companies House shows the company was only incorporated in March 2025 (with MANY earlier dissolved/strike-offs
Only the MOST BASIC tuition, not enough to even start as a Tattoo artist anywhere!!
– CPD and “Tattoo Safe Certificate” are advertised as if they are tattoo qualifications, which they are not - purposely misleading.
- Students left to just practice all day, whilst tutor sits at desk.
-when "trainer" was asked a question - student told to "look on YouTube" !
- I lodged a formal complaint and refund request on 25 Sept — completely ignored. This matches other reviews describing customers being ghosted after paying.
This experience has cost us financially and knocked confidence badly.
This is misrepresentation throughout and has been reported to Trading Standards.

Had an amazing time. Learned loads and really proud of my live tattoos. Highly recommend

Signed up for a course in Glasgow, and paid the required £300 deposit. Not given a location for the course despite asking multiple times and eventually with only a few days notice the course was cancelled ( i'd taken 2 weeks off work for the course so this was incredibly frustrating) was offered a different course in Manchester which I turned down due to dates and location - was told i'd be advised of new Glasgow dates and was not. Requested a refund of my deposit multiple times to be given excuses and now me emails are ignored . Wildly unprofessional - reporting to trading standards.

I really enjoyed myself on my course with the UK official tattoo academy. Everything was easy to follow and I could go at my own pace. The tutor had great knowledge and was able to give practical tips when I was tattooing. I now have support for life with the other students who attending with me!

I completed my two day piercing course in London, Ramford. LEAH was my teacher. From start to finish Leah had extensive information and was attentive to all students. Day two practical Leah was great. If myself or anyone had issues she rectified and shown you right from wrong and was very hands on. Great teacher, great academy.

Had my belly and ears pierced today from a lovely girl doing the piercing course had a great experience everyone was so friendly I’m glad I could be apart of your learning experience! I wish you all the best for the future :)

I had my tragus, rook, and third lobes pierced as part of a piercing course and I couldn’t be happier with the results! The piercings were done really well, everything was clean and professional, and I felt comfortable the whole time. I’m so pleased with how they look and it was a great experience overall.
